Ok so, in the midst of D&D, my dad having COVID, and just the lockdown in general, I had a few ideas on what the rewrite may look like.
Firstly: Starting from where Spidey was already extremely established, I was doomed from the getgo. I totally ignored the actual sequence of events in the comics pertaining to Ock's life as Peter, it was just all wrong.
Second: I had a few ideas on how I could get through the X-Men part here.
So there's 2 choices: I can rewrite from the spider bite and on, and say the self-insert or whatever was transferred via the bite, OR I can keep going with what I have and just do a little editing and retconning and move on with what I think might work with the X-Men. If I rewrite altogether, the harem will for the most part remain the same, but possibly with a few tweaks, considering he would be an entirely different person for the majority of his life following the bite.
Edit: It's Monday for me now, the deadline for what you guys want it probably gonna be about Wednesday.
Edit 2: I lied, Imma do the rewrite in like 5 minutes. I have ideas and shit burning holes in my brain, and I need to strike while the iron's hot. I'll post a chappie here to let y'all know when it's up and I'll put the title of it here.
Please let me know which route sounds better. The main points of the Spidey here will be the same in the rewrite if I do it, but I'll be starting from hoodie/jeans suit days.
